ALB GAMES
Games in a Book
Now in Audio Book Format!
Card and Communication Games for Fun & Discussion
ALB Games has a unique approach to publishing games.
Rather than putting the game in a box, it publishes these games in a book!
Players print or paste the cards on stock paper to form a card deck of about 150 cards which feature different activities for playing the game.
Players are potential scam victims, seeking to avoid scams and protect themselves from being scammed. Players can make up their own rules, too.
The book features a description of the game, rules of the play, and cards to cut up and use in playing the game.
Additionally, there are blank cards so you can create your own cards.
Players seek to get out of prison by gaining points, and at the end of the game, the player with the most points wins and gets out of prison.
Players gain points for good behavior and positive actions of the guards or staff and lose points for bad behavior and negative actions of the guards or staff.
Players can also engage in certain actions, such as exchanging cards with or taking cards from other players.
In response to a question card, players describe what happened, why, what led up to the crime, or what happened next.
In response to an action card, players perform an action as the criminal, cop, observer, or reporter at the scene.
The book features a description of the game, rules of the play, and cards to cut up and use in playing the game.
Additionally, there are blank cards to create your own cards.
The game is about making the most money you can with AI programs.
You might imagine yourself as an AI developer or company owner seeking to license your AI programs to professionals or companies that might use AI in their work or business.
While playing the game just for fun, players can discuss their views about various AI topics. Or they can leave out the discussion. Players can make up their own cards and rules, too.
ALB Games Feature Topics in the News, Everyday Activities, Personal Relationships, and More!
All books feature a description of the game, rules of play, and include cards to cut up for play as well as blank cards so you can create your own.
